Police investigating the Grenfell Tower fire have
concluded there are “reasonable grounds” to suspect the Royal Borough of
Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) and the council’s tenant management organisation
(TMO) may have committed corporate manslaughter. Chiefs from both organisations
will be formally interviewed by officers as part of the criminal investigation
into the tragedy that claimed at least 80 lives. A statement circulated to
those involved said an “initial assessment” of seized material and witness
statements had allowed police to conclude that each organisation may have
committed the offence. Both organisations will be questioned under the
Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007. Read more on the
